1. Thanks for the info

[hlthe2b]

2. Reportedly she took two different prepared speeches home to make her decision

as to which one to deliver. No leaks, so we wait.

It has been suggested that an Emeritus Advisory role be created for her. I think that is infinitely better than her stepping away from leadership if she does. I can't think of any likely single congressperson who could fill her shoes at the moment.

3. Whatever she decides, I fully support her.

She does not owe us ANYTHING.

Thank you so much for your service, Madame Speaker!

5. Same here!

4. She's had a glorious career in Washington, and leading the fight for Democrats everywhere

I'll support her decision whatever it may be. But I really think she's going to retire and pass the torch.

6. Yes, I think Madame Speaker will retire. I think what happened to

her husband had caused her to reflect on life and realize it’s fleeting.

7. I'm hoping she w mentor younger members & future leaders even in retirement

We certainly need her on our side & the young leaders can benefit from her deft wisdom & experience.

8. She's earned it and then some

9. I'm the caregiver for a disabled husband and I treasure every day with him.

I could understand if she wanted to retire and devote time to him.
